Scott Sheldon homered for a fifth straight game Friday -- one shy of the Pacific League record -- and the Orix BlueWave pounded the Daiei Hawks 17-0 at Fukuoka Dome.
Sheldon went 3-for-4, including a three-run homer in the first inning, and scored three runs as the BlueWave equaled season highs in the PL for hits (19) and runs scored in a single game.
Takeshi Hidaka hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs and Fernando Seguignol connected for a three-run pinch-hit homer for Orix.
